Twilight Kissing Scenes Video

  Today I have for you a new video for the Twilight fans. This is a video of two scenes from the Twilight movies of Bella kissing both Edward and Jacob. In the background we have "Every Breath You Take" by the Police. I think it worked out well with them. Enjoy...

Star Wars Revenge of the Sith Final Fight Scene

I've uploaded a 'music video' of sorts here that I made with MS Movie Maker. It is from Star Wars Revenge of the Sith (EP3) and of the final fight scene between Anakin Skywalker (soon to be Darth Vader) and Obi Wan Kenobi. I took out the boring dialogue between them and put in something much more fitting: the song "Hells Bells" by AC/DC. Enjoy!

Do you want to know what the "Matrix" is?

The "Matrix" is everywhere....
It is in this very room.
It is in the food we eat...
It is in the air we breathe...
You see it when you go to work...
When you go to church...
When you pay your taxes...
It is the world that has been pulled over our eyes to blind us....
To the truth...

Get your own "Matrix" in the form of a cool graphic utility here:

Then, once you've configured it to your liking, play the following video

Book & Blow

    I'm through chapter 4 and well on my way into chapter 5 of book 2. It's coming along nicely. Andy found out that he's not who he thought he was as neither are the Icurnians. Unfortunately, he's been separated from his friend Gratoly & is told he can never see him again. The dragon meanwhile is busy with his own tasks, in his attempt to complete the trials and gain his honor with the dragons of Wyrme.
   I had an epiphany the other day (after listening to the song "Blow" by Kesha & thought it might go well with the prom scene from the movie "Carrie"). See what you think of the video I created:

I uploaded the video to Youtube as well, which can be found here:

Chapter Three is in the Books, so to speak

I've pretty much finished chapter three of book 2 this morning. I'd been wondering yesterday how far along I was with my first book by this time of the year, and in checking I found that I was already done with chapter 12 by the end of October, 2010. I finished it back in April, 2011. I figure that if I can write about 3 chapters per month that I might just about finish book 2 in April, 2012. Things never go quite as planned, but I guess that I can hope to make this schedule. I did see also that I had actually begun writing book 1 around March or so of 2009. So in actuallity, it took a whole year to write. Book 2 I began to write I think back in September. So I've only been writing it for 2 months so far. (though my notes and thoughts on it have been planned even during my writing of book 1). We'll see how it goes.

I've Wasted Too Much Time Already...

  Well, chapter 3 is coming along nicely. I would say that it is nearly done, just needs a few more finishing touches. I was on a good roll-working on book 2-and had gotten through the prologue, chapters 1 & 2 pretty quickly. But then I fell back into playing the Lord of the Rings Online game again. I guess that it's one of my weaknesses; taking characters into virtual worlds where they can adventure and explore. I've loved MMORPG's since I began playing them back in 2000 when I started with Everquest. From there I moved on to EQ2, Wow, PWI, D&DO, and LOTRO (naming the major ones-there were a few others of lesser merit that I won't mention). I have vowed to not play the game though for a while. At least not until I've finished chapter 3 and probably even longer than that. I really don't need to keep wasting my time with the game-it really doesn't do me any good to play anyway. Even though it is enjoyable in it's own way ultimately I have nothing to show from all the time I've spent playing. And what good is that? Even if my characters were to become the most powerful and envied characters in the game, what would that really amount to? Just a means to use more of my precious time in not concentrate on my work. On the other hand, spending time writing gets me that much farther into my book, which leads to getting me closer to finishing it. And that is an actual accomplishment. So, though I may find it frustrating at times to go without the pleasure of playing my favorite game, in the end I know that I'll be glad that I did. I was overjoyed at the feeling I had upon finishing my first book. Completing book 2 should be, I hope, even better.

Into Chapter 2

    Work on my second book is progressing. So far I have the Prologue and chapter one totally finish-drafted (to a degree where they are 90% done-just needing finishing touches/editing to polish them off). I'm now working on chapter two. The second chapter I think will be one of the defining chapters of the book as it is where Andy Brighton will make a huge discovery=that there is a city of people on the dragon planet of Wyrme hidden under the illusion of the forest of Wyrmewood. And the people themselves are humans, albeit also different in that they can cast magical spells. Not only this, but Andy finds that he is actually one of them and able to manipulate enchantments as well. His learning of magic and becoming a powerful sorcerer will bode well for these people and the dragons in the time to come when the Icurnians, those who would want to invade Wyrme and assimilate it's people, finally arrive.
    Anyway, hopefully when finished the book will be even better than book one (Wyrmewood and the Forsaken Orb) and I hope to find an agent to accept it for publishing with a major book publisher.
